Arriving in a parallel world where idols are in decline,
With no connections, no resources, and not much capital,
Want to open an entertainment company and create idol stars?
It a...
As the video ended with the members' first public greeting, the scene transitioned to the five trainees being sucked from the real world into a circle of light, revealing the company's meticulously crafted music video for their first single.
The music video opens with the five members of the group all dressed in stylish, trendy attire, their outfits bold, bright, and playful colors creating a playful, cute yet sexy vibe. Compared to the outfits of most of the people around them in the music video, these five girls are not only exceptionally eye-catching, but their expressions are also exceptionally confident and exuberant.
Many people watching the video were impressed: "This MV has such a strong color impact, and the overall feeling is so dreamy! Every member looks sophisticated and super stylish!" Their aura is completely unlike that of a newly debuted girl idol group. It's really quite interesting.
The camera quickly switched, revealing the five girls each engaged in their own endeavors in this world. Qi Zhi, the group's leader, threw a javelin, breaking a record on the field. Lan Leyi, a member, was furiously writing in her room. Fu Ning, standing in front of a projection screen, excitedly presented her business plan to a group of people. Elsewhere, Bei Ping'an, the last member to practice dance in the classroom, looked incredibly happy. Yan Yun brought some freshly baked desserts for her parents to try.
Seeing this, many industry insiders, including Mint Boy’s agent Lin Bin, and many viewers couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed with the plot.
Even though her appearance and temperament are unusual, the visual impact she brought to everyone at the beginning has passed. Although the plot of this MV is not old-fashioned, it does not have any particularly big surprises.
Based on the current plot of the music video, many people are confident that it will be a song about young girls' pursuits in life and their definition of happiness. It's positive, profound, and relatable, so it's not particularly bad. However, given the plot and general genre of the music video, many people are no longer particularly optimistic.
Next, we need to see the quality of this song. Can they amaze everyone as soon as they open their mouths?
If not, it means that Yuexiang Entertainment is really bragging this time. The difference in appearance, temperament, and dress alone is not enough to break the public's impression of girl groups.
Just as everyone was expecting them to speak, the music in the MV suddenly changed. The plot took a sharp turn. People around them questioned how a girl could possibly throw farther than a boy, and refused to give Qi Zhi the award. Lan Leyi was criticized for how she could do so well on a test despite her beauty. Fu Ning was surrounded by a group of people who expressed disbelief at the young woman and threw away her business proposal. Bei Ping'an was so nervous that he messed up the dance performance. Yan Yun's family questioned her for doing this instead of finding a stable job...
All five girls encountered setbacks at once, and suffered all kinds of cold faces, accusations and unfair treatment.
Could an idol girl group's song have such a plot? The audience was completely taken aback by the sudden turn of events. Some people, about to close the video, paused, deciding to give this new girl group's debut music video a few more seconds.
The scene changed again, and all five members changed out of their original playful and beautiful clothes. The styles of the clothes were similar to before, but they were all dark colors. The accessories and details were more exaggerated and sharp, and the members' makeup seemed more aggressive, making the image of these five originally innocent and lively girls immediately become sexy and domineering.
With sharp eyes and an even stronger and more confident aura than before, they officially began to sing the song.
Captain Qi Zhi spoke the first sentence steadily, and the song's rhythmic melody and her unique hoarse voice immediately caught everyone's ears.
Completely different from the relatively straightforward and original singing styles of those young girl groups, the vocal styles of the five members of Mysterious Girls appear to be very professional, stable and powerful. No matter it is a few high notes that test singing skills or the harmony of the overall group, each member shows extremely high singing ability and singing charm in their solo parts and cooperation parts!
This level of professional singing immediately shocked many in the audience. Even many listeners who are used to hearing talented singers couldn't help but nod their heads in response to the video. Although these members may not reach the level of some top professional singers in terms of tone and emotion, they have undoubtedly undergone extremely professional singing training and are absolutely powerful idols with solid singing skills!
This song is not only difficult, but also very nice to listen to.
Then, what completely attracted everyone's attention and brought a huge impact to the audience around the world was the dance presented by the newest girl group of Yuexiang Entertainment!
Aside from the initial upbeat melody that sets up the story, this song is actually quite rhythmic, aggressive, and addictive. Throughout the story, the five girls battle various twisted malice and monsters, traversing increasingly dark jungles and thorns toward a silver-white castle in the darkness.
The interludes of the music were accompanied by powerful drum beats and string music, which made everyone feel very impressed and pleasant. The dance for this song is also extremely difficult, with many movements and a fast tempo, and many of the movements require great strength and control.
Yet, each of the five girls displayed exceptionally solid dance skills and impeccable coordination. It seemed as if each was a single individual, their execution of every move and every detail remarkably consistent and precise. The numerous group dances were presented with incredible unity. Every angle and dynamic was perfectly executed, beautifully executed. This video brought an unprecedented sense of beauty and awe to all who watched it!
The song is of high quality, and the climax melody is extremely catchy. The five members' singing skills are impeccable. The difficult and tense, extremely neat group dance and movement, coupled with the avant-garde and gorgeous MV background effects, such a combination made everyone in front of the video hold their breath and feel the super strong impact from the performance level that exceeds that of all idol groups on the market!
By the end of the video, many people were still stunned. Is this what Yuexiang Entertainment said, a group that breaks the public's imagination of girl groups?
It seemed to really exceed all of their original imaginations.
It turns out that girl idol groups can be more than just cute and youthful. They can also be so...shocking, powerful, harmonious, and beautiful!
After watching the music video, many people still remember the image of the five members' identical, formidable, and challenging group dance, along with their determined, confident looks! Though the five members' looks and temperaments are completely different, they create a strong sense of community. Each member stands out, but together they become even more striking, creating an effect where the sum of their parts is greater than five.
There is absolutely no weakness in the abilities of the five members, and everyone began to understand why several members said at the beginning of the introduction video that their specialties were singing and dancing.
Singing and dancing at this level are definitely specialties!
Many industry insiders who have been studying the music video have to admit: judging by the performance of this music video, any one of these five members looks like a fully mature artist. Furthermore, when all five come together, their individual strengths and impeccable coordination create a stronger sense of unity, which deeply shocks the audience.
Including the agent of Mint Girls, many rival companies and artists themselves who were watching the newly debuted girl group of Yuexiang Entertainment in front of their computers felt their hearts sink to the center of the earth.
How... could such an idol group appear?
Now...are they going to compete with this kind of girl group in the idol market? Can they really...still get the audience's attention and love?
All the viewers who watched this video were completely excited. This MV is great! This song is really good! This new girl group is really, really strong!
Many people's first reaction was what Yuexiang Entertainment announced in the trailer: This is a truly epoch-making idol group that breaks the public's impression of girl groups!

On major social platforms, these topics immediately became hot searches at a rocket-like speed, and completely ignited the discussion among people online and offline.
People were discussing: "It turns out that girls' dancing can be so powerful! This dance really subverts my imagination!"
"I didn't know there was a girl group like this. I don't know what to say."
"As expected of Yuexiang Entertainment, I'm truly impressed. From now on, I unilaterally declare that Yuexiang Entertainment is the strongest in the idol field."
"Don't just focus on the dance, even though I was surprised! Did you notice the lyrics and the music video? They're about how girls must have their own strength. No matter what setbacks or hurts they face, they must stand up strong and fight bravely! Combined with the strength of the members of this group, I really think it's amazing!"
"I became their fan right after watching the music video. I used to be naive about the level of a girl idol group that trained for four or five years. Now I can't believe how much sweat and tears they've shed to debut so strong. This group, just like their first song, is breaking through obstacles with the power of girls and shaking the world!"
Inside Yuexiang Entertainment, everyone watched in front of their computers as the fan base of the Mysterious Girls group and its members exploded across various platforms. The number of single music videos and song plays released on Yuexiang Entertainment's official website and various platforms also skyrocketed. Discussions about the group members and their new single music video instantly topped the charts on major social media platforms, as well as entertainment and music platforms.
Su Yin and a group of staff members stood in the company, looking at the various achievements and good news that kept coming in. Everyone couldn't help but excitedly clenched their fists and made a victory gesture. Su Yin also had a smile on her face. She knew that this newly launched girl group would really break the imagination of the public in this world as the promotional slogan she originally decided on!
Now, they have really done it!
City A TV—the entertainment giant among national satellite TV stations—airs its flagship variety show, "Happy Journey," tonight. This eight-year-old variety show has consistently held the top spot in the ratings, even despite occasional hits like "Peach Blossom Spring" that have knocked it off the top spot. It still maintains exceptionally high ratings year-round, maintaining a remarkably stable audience and a strong influence.
"Happy Journey" features a different theme each week, inviting relevant artists or amateurs with specialties to participate. Each episode is connected by stage performances and various interactive games. The hosts are hilarious, and the overall program is lighthearted, joyful, and heartwarming.
In addition to these unspecified program themes, Happy Journey sometimes also designs a special episode with relevant content for the big-name artists participating in the program.
Tonight, "Happy Journey" will feature a special episode dedicated to the mysterious girl who recently debuted. This marks the first time in several years that this flagship program has dedicated an entire episode to a newly debuted artist.
Despite debuting only a few days ago, this girl group has already spread its fame both domestically and internationally with unstoppable momentum, dominating the market with a dominant position over a host of older idol girl groups and remaining a hot topic for several days. Their looks, singing, dancing, lyrics, and music videos are all hot topics these days.
Tonight, as soon as the news came out that the mysterious girls would come to "Happy Journey" to participate in their first variety show, the tickets for "Happy Journey", which were already difficult to get, were sold at sky-high prices.
Now, the program has not officially started recording yet, and the audiences are already sitting in the auditorium waiting, and they see that the seats are already full of their fans. These new fans have also held up the mysterious girl's light board, support banners and other support items,
As all the staff members were ready, various props were moved onto the stage, and it was announced that the recording of tonight's episode of "Happy Journey" had officially begun.
The audience in the audience couldn't help but hold their breath and look forward to it.
The lights gradually dimmed, and everyone could see five girls walking onto the stage in the darkness. Then, the prelude to the debut single "A Rose That Came Through Thorns," by the mysterious girl who had recently become a global sensation, began to play.
The lights came on, and the five members of Mystery Girl appeared center stage. Seeing them in person was just as shocking as seeing them in their music videos. The fans and audience couldn't help but gasp, exclaiming that they looked even better in person than in the videos, more vibrant and more captivating.
Moreover, each member indeed has a different temperament and characteristics. Although the audience below saw them in person for the first time and had only seen one MV video and photos on the official website before, they were able to recognize each member.
Soon the fans shut up, quieted down, and watched the mysterious girl group's first public performance.
As the music started, Captain Qi Zhi's first words were as steady as in the video. The audience could hear her voice clearly, streaming directly through the speakers. Her unique timbre and exceptional vocals immediately thrilled everyone! It was exactly the same, or even more captivating because it was a live performance!
The performances of the next few members also amazed everyone. Apart from the occasional short breaths and the unique texture brought by the live performance, the members' performances could almost be said to be extremely stable and not inferior to the studio versions.
When watching their performance face to face, the audience was so quiet that the entire studio was filled with only the background music of the song and the perfect live singing of the group members.
The audience watched the members' performance intently, witnessing firsthand the members' absolute dancing prowess in the music video, their coordinated group dance like five fierce hurricanes, like five sharp knives! Each coordinated and powerful dance move captivated the audience, and this up-close and personal experience had a more impactful effect than what they'd seen in the video!
Even the audience felt as if their steps, waving, and leaps shook the entire studio, making everyone's heart flutter with their dancing! Every movement, every lyric, every expression made them scream wildly inwardly! Indeed, many in the audience couldn't help but scream, then quickly covered their mouths.
Many of these new fans who had just fallen in love with them had already prepared themselves mentally before participating in today's recording session. They hoped that they would be as strong as they appeared in the music video, but they also told themselves that the music video was the best version they had ever recorded after repeated studio sessions and on-site auditions.
This public performance gave the audience and fans a huge surprise, but it also caused another huge harm to the people from the competing company who came to watch the mysterious girl's live performance.
On this debut stage, which had only one chance to perform, all five members gave perfect performances!
At the end of the song, the five members of Mysterious Girl performed their final ending poses, and the entire studio was immediately overwhelmed by the audience's excitement, screams, and applause.
At the same time, the producer of "Happy Journey", the deputy director of City A Satellite TV and Su Yin stood in a place that the audience could not notice and watched the mysterious girl's debut performance together.
After the debut performance, A City TV's Deputy Director Ren Yong and Producer Le Ya couldn't help but applaud along with the audience. Although they had already seen the group perform during rehearsals, they were even more satisfied with their flawless performance during the actual recording.
"Xiao Su! You are really amazing. From the Moonlight Boys to the current Mysterious Girls, you have single-handedly turned the entire idol industry upside down." After watching the Mysterious Girls' performance for only one minute, Ren Yong could already foresee that this group was a sure thing, and the ratings and topic level of this episode of "Happy Journey" would definitely be high.
"Director Ren, thank you for your kind words. I was just lucky and took a step faster. Ultimately, it's because the timing and adjustments were ripe." Su Yin responded modestly to this media figure in Province A who should not be underestimated.
At this time, the two hosts had already come on stage and were happily greeting the food-loving girls who were present today and the audience watching on TV.
Then began a brief introduction and short interview of the five members.
As the deputy director of City A TV, Ren Yong's daily work was incredibly busy. He exchanged pleasantries with Su Yin and praised her artists. Before leaving, he shook her hand, thanked her for choosing City A TV for the new group's debut performance, and expressed his hope for deeper collaboration and exchange between City A TV and Yuexiang Entertainment. Then, he rushed off to a meeting outside.
Su Yin naturally agreed with a smile and walked him out of the studio with a smile.
Director Ren's presence this time undoubtedly reflects his deep appreciation for the Mysterious Girl's variety show debut, and it also serves as a great honor for Su Yin and Yuexiang Entertainment. This also encourages the on-site staff to focus even more on recording this episode.
Over the past two years, Yuexiang Entertainment has further deepened its collaboration with numerous national television stations and online video platforms. As the home of Yuexiang Entertainment and a national center of media and culture, City A's relationship with City A Satellite TV has naturally grown closer.
On the eve of the Mysterious Girl's debut, Deputy Director Ren personally visited Yuexiang Entertainment and watched the group's impromptu single performance with Su Yin. He then directly expressed his desire to have Yuexiang Entertainment's new group's variety show debut, or rather, their television debut, be broadcast on their A City Satellite TV station.
Yuexiang Entertainment will be free to choose from all of A City TV's programming, and the program flow and content can be tailored for this new combination, with Yuexiang Entertainment reviewing it beforehand. A City TV is willing to demonstrate its trust in Yuexiang Entertainment upfront, expressing its support with concrete actions and the utmost sincerity to facilitate this collaboration.
Finally, after much consideration, Su Yin reached an agreement for the newly launched idol girl group to appear on the prime-time ace variety show "Happy Journey" on City A Satellite TV.
After the performance, the five girls who had just seemed full of stage charm and aura immediately smiled sweetly and greeted the audience in the venue and the viewers on TV enthusiastically.
In the following program, the host shared with the audience the specialties of the members provided by Yuexiang Entertainment and some special things that happened during their training and preparations for their debut.
There was a hilarious incident where team leader Qi Zhi was leading everyone in practice when he suddenly noticed member Lan Leyi moving and dancing with her eyes closed. He called out to her, and she looked like she had just been awakened from her sleep.
There was also the case of Fu Ning, who was so excited after learning that she had been selected as a debut group member that she couldn't sleep and went to the balcony to vent her excitement. However, because she had to keep it a secret, she could only scream "Ah ...
Another member, Bei Ping'an, had won many dance awards before joining the company, but he was new to singing. It was thanks to the guidance of the teachers after joining the company and his own hard practice that he now has no major problems.
What surprised the audience the most was that in this episode the five members also revealed some information about the MV they released a few days ago!
At the beginning of the MV, each member's plot was arranged for a special reason. The team leader Qi Zhi did win the javelin championship in real life; Lan Leyi has a very good memory, and she remembers all kinds of lyrics, scores, and dances the fastest; Fu Ning is a well-known business expert and a wealthy woman among the trainees; Bei Ping'an's plot is indeed her real experience in the past; Yan Yun can indeed make small desserts and has superb cooking skills!
This revelation excited many fans who had watched their music videos countless times! They initially thought it was just a plot twist, but it turned out to be all carefully planned and truly reflective of the members' true selves! This revelation was incredibly amusing! The five members, who had initially been perceived as more lively in person, quickly blended in with their music video personas.
Afterwards, the five members performed a live a cappella performance of the opening theme song "Happy Journey." This small segment, which had not appeared in the rehearsal, stunned the audience and the two hosts, who applauded continuously!
The five girls said that this was a small gift they had privately agreed to give to all members two days ago for "Happy Journey", which they had particularly liked before, and it made the atmosphere in the studio particularly warm.
Then, they invited the audience to dance and learn. The five members imitated the singing and dancing of several superstars in the circle. The program team also gave them a surprise and invited fans and dance club members who had been studying this song and dance seriously since the release of their single to perform a live performance of "The Rose that Came Through Thorns" for the members. The whole program had various funny segments and many touching and warm moments.
After the recording session, even the two hosts, who have hosted the show for eight years, and the other staff members felt that this episode was one of the most exciting in recent years. They themselves were filled with joy, emotion, and shock.
With their many years of work experience, everyone is sure that the ratings for this episode will definitely not be low!
After the recording, Su Yin, along with the five members of Mysterious Girl and several staff members from Yuexiang Entertainment, gave all the staff and audiences on the scene small gift bags of Mysterious Girl peripheral products that had just been put on the shelves.
After spending quite a bit of time politely saying goodbye to the staff, audience, and fans, the members followed Su Yin out of the A City TV building.
The author has something to say: After seeing yesterday's comments, I want to explain that I definitely didn't mean to be a watered-down writer. It might be a bad writing habit, but I wanted to write about the surrounding reactions and the foreshadowing of the following plot, and then write it all together.
I also thought about it from a reader's perspective and realized that following the serialized stories would indeed be unpleasant. Next time I will pay attention to this habit of mine and break down the reactions or foreshadowing into more parts of the plot.
